Jacksonville Truck Accident Attorneys

Seeking Justice & Fighting for Compensation

Streets and highways are often crowded with large and small automobiles,
including cars and trucks. Truck accidents occur far too frequently in
our modern society and are one of the leading causes of motor vehicle accident
fatalities. This is a fact that is easy to understand when you consider that commercial
trucks can weigh around 70,000 pounds and the average passenger car weighs
around 3,000 pounds.

Trucking accidents often occur due to:

Distracted driving

Trucks driving too close to ditches

Riding onto soft shoulders

Driving with uneven loads

Traveling over uneven ground

Poor brakes or tires

Non-working signals

Downhill slopes

Truck overloads

Driver fatigue or intoxication

However, not all trucking accidents occur though through driver negligence
or truck malfunctions. Maintaining the control of a commercial truck can
be very difficult under poor road or weather conditions, and during the
transportation of livestock or liquids. Trucks carrying livestock can
inadvertently shift weight when turning corners or when the truck has
to make a sudden turn. Trucks carrying liquids have to worry about the
liquids sloshing back and forth if no baffles are installed in the tank.
